... remember the ... Alamo Bowl of Motorola's Xoom tablet Wellink Schaeuble on Monday coming soon a saloon freeze loom ... will total about it right have right now on Digits good afternoon and welcome I'm Simon cost was the most of those are just a vessel Arrow and citrus oils and tells ... all about the Xoom and the only thing we could say again again again again again when the original them ... was was announced was a on the bus was bombed by the price ... but no marketing ... she wants an unexpected tells about that and so ... is the Motorola came out today announced that they were going to release a thirty two gay white Tigers ... Xoom tablet ... so and was interesting is the Islands' and the five hundred ninety nine bucks ... that's right a lot of these things that with Apple's offering sustained Apple's wide eyed version the right that he was also bought ninety nine so busy all those worries that consumers who expenses ... you know why would people pay in dollars resembled out wide eyed version which they had enough for an emotionally whose father ... now they are releasing a modified versions can be bought ninety nine ... here is how it can tally ... so they haven't released any numbers here ... are the says Milmo Apple's dominated the tablet market ... and so it's not as last year he estimates or five thousand million iPads whose over the weekend ... so ... I don't get it so that along it's a long battle for Mota role is to get into the space and fill some share this is going to be an interesting one because now it's a comparable price point I mean and that's without offers from what I've done them a quick one but ... three different in that it is but it does exist in the need to get one and it's coming up next the twenty seventh of March the margins in the double punch them in stores on Best Buy's Staples Costco I mean instead of a pre budget submission which is ... Iowa positioning and versus the act at any ... bid to ... acquire what reason beginning to get one in the market they are talking want it to Android based tablet and so they're basically ... marketing as the high-end this is like that that the premium tablet that were often so they really don't have to take the high-end consumer here ... and so I ... know it'll be inching to see it now has all those doctors isn't about how expensive ... that it ... was interesting was ... not that it's going to be on par with the white papers will be on our Apple it's about the best among its ITG chasing bait they sped up when he missed Al because all people being so shocked at what price would you think that ... that they just took the opportunity to set aside look Weekly Times compete at this at this price point now we're just on a discounted this out last week that it certainly looks that way because when the Xoom was originally released on Edel swells of up to today so that they sped the start of the missiles them so they can keep the I pad to see ... that the I pad to lose out on all movement that places them on specs and everything out there in the open ... tomorrow week leaders say OK now we're going to movies are wide eyed version of this price and you know ... thirty two games and so ... yes I mean ... since then I'll meeting but I had a look that way when we should wish all say thank you very much Teva's lower the disease was in the ... Motorola Xoom that we try to match the West Coast when Nick Wingfield ... is standing by to see us news ... that maybe SBM should be white because Netflix is getting into the movie production ... business makes also about this what's happening ... soon as the greatest really saying that Netflix is in advanced discussions with a Hollywood production company ... over acquiring exclusive rights to a series that would run only on Netflix streaming at least initially ... of the series is to be directed by ... either the Oscar nominated director David Fincher the social network ... Kevin Spacey isn't that was an actor ... and it proved to be something that could potentially I would give them an original series in the same way that ... HBO original series like Sopranos untrue brought in things like that could be a real boost for ... the networks ... next I ... think at this point and ... Espinoza allows you should be worried about this that and that ... yet ... the the the the the interesting thing of all was that Netflix just crossed the twenty million subscriber mark at the end of last year ... that's ahead of stars in Showtime ... on bets that were significantly behind HBO which has a little bit of a twenty eight million ... that those Netflix grew sixty percent last year ... instead to shrink a little bit ... so I think I'd know when you look a couple years I hope we could start talking that we could be imagining a situation where Renault which has more subscribers now can walk or clout to acquire content ... man I ... YSI to review businesses is grain whisky and now when you when you make a movie YouTube the places we can lose a ton of money on because it is also much to produce ... is not one of the Neflix overlay on the way around that ... absolutely and this is this is incredibly risky thing for them ... she had a few years ago some think the altar of entertainment where they were going all the film festivals ... and acquiring the rights the DVD rights for ... Libya is going to Michelle that effort down ... the coming back to this now but I think there is a risk that the DB to fall from the core competencies which is ... the Internet and technology ... I'm getting to the creative business which is very admits to ten ... knots or so are coming together to make it today just people offering this type of maybe just recently ... finance Qantas TDL is decide who ... to continue just give us more than content that you don't we'll be doing a Sasol son ... and his house in its way up ... I think I think there's a possibility that I think that they do ... I've been in the country right now signaling that there are serious purchaser content it didn't do it ... with about that that's the pay TV channel redbacks which has a very odd ... live in a pricey do it for them ... and I think about that and ... that of the player but ... that this this could be ... there and have more negotiating strategy of fabric that ... I should say that this is not the only ... effort that Netflix ... sources say that there are engaged in right now through the original content for talking up as well ... I am Cable to buy satellite provided should be paying attention to it I mean it seems all part of it ... on line services are more attractive getting more content are people more likely that to cancel their cable subscription is ... that a dynamic we see playing out all ... absolutely I think most of the studies have shown that cord cutting is not that that is to come into your traditional pay TV ... package is not something that is rampant yet ... that no as I said that opinion channels had been losing customers especially in this weak economy ... and I think that Netflix offers no real value with the the the the the wide selection of ... of of cotton or at least a newer content ... so to the extent that Netflix actually could get some good shows something out of the Sopranos was to be a real stretch ... they might be up ... to speed up cycle or cutting ... them and maybe they will we shall see in to Time thank you very much ...
